Lausanne’s daytime childcare facilities are in woeful short supply
The Petit de Chateau de Vennes, a charming period mansion originally built in 1839 is being re-developed as a nursery and kindergarten at a cost of nearly CHF 3 million. The much-needed municipal facility, on the Route de Berne, will service families in the Vennes and La Sallaz neighbourhoods of north Lausanne. It is expected to open by the summer of 2016 and will provide 10 places for babies between 4 and 24 months; 14 places for infants aged 18 to 36 months and 20 places for children aged between 3 and 5 years.
